I have never heard of this cartoon but it looks really cute. I think cupcakes with accents on it like this take me longer than a cake. I want to say I spent at least 8 hours (for 50 cupcakes) putting the fondant pieces together. The best part and what makes it all worth it is topping a cupcake off with it's fondant piece. Way fun!

Quite honestly, I was pretty sure I was going to butcher this cake. Thankfully, it all came together. Grateful for all the cake tools they are coming up with. Makes it easier to come up with stuff (and fix things when you realize your messing up!).

This compliments the invite. The invite was all black Damask with a plain white wedding dress in the middle with a red ribbon around the waist. All of my previous damask cakes were great practice for this one!

The best part about this cake was meeting the two little boys. They are just so dang cute-personality and all! I think this was my biggest birthday order to date. 2 tier, 2 smash, 24 cupcakes. I guess that happens when you have to do double. When the boys were first born, they had to color coordinate them to tell them apart. We made sure to identify them on the cake in their given color. I just love that! Sea turtles are a big thing to this family as well so we sea turtle'd it up! I had a great time with this one!

Despite your religious preference, "Choosing The Right" is always a good thing! I love this acronym/symbol and everything it stands for. The fact that it is also green-the color in which I am slightly obsessed with-makes it even more special for me. This cake was to celebrate the birthdays of a class of kids turning 8 this year. I had so much fun making the little shields for the cupcakes! The cake was for the party and cupcakes to send home. What an awesome teacher! Those kids are lucky to have her!

Cakes are displayed on a white or silver cake board. If you wish for the board to be covered in fondant to match the cake, please add that to your request.

Smash Cake- $10(Smash cakes must be ordered in addition to a minimum of a 1-tier cake or cupcake order)

Cupcakes-2 doz- $30-frosted cupcakes (email for an estimate to add fondant accents and or filling).

Wedding cakes-Start at $150. This includes a fake 3 tier with a 12" round base. It's top tier is real for the bride and groom to cut and/or take home but the cost is higher for the entire cake to be real. I have a square and round silver cake plateau's if needed.
